Frequently Asked Questions

What is the PSA Dagger Micro C1 based on?

The PSA Dagger Micro C1 is based on the Glock Slimline platform. It utilizes Shield Arms magazines, offering a 15-round capacity in a steel-bodied magazine, which provides thinner walls than polymer, allowing for more interior space and higher capacity.

What are the key features of the PSA Dagger Micro C1's slide?

The PSA Dagger Micro C1 features a DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coated slide for durability. It includes an integrated compensator, which acts as an expansion chamber to reduce muzzle flip without adding external components or sacrificing velocity. The slide is also optics-ready for micro footprint red dots.

How is the PSA Dagger Micro C1 field stripped?

To field strip the PSA Dagger Micro C1, ensure it's clear and the striker is released. Pull the slide back slightly, then pull down the takedown tabs on both sides of the frame. The slide will then come forward and off the frame. The recoil assembly and barrel can then be removed from the slide.

What is notable about the chamber support on the PSA Dagger Micro C1?

The PSA Dagger Micro C1 features a fully supported chamber. This is considered a valuable design aspect as it provides greater strength and containment in the event of a case rupture or catastrophic failure, directing force forward out the barrel rather than into the shooter's hand.
